The given compound is being synthesized by condensing
Acetone and
Pivaldehyde (Trimethylacetaldehyde).
First Acetone is treated with
Base, the base abstracts the mildly acidic proton present at alpha position to carbonyl group. The resulting specie called
enolate act as a nucleophile and attacks on highly reactive aldehyde which upon
dehydration yields the
Aldol Product. The Reaction is as follow,
Answer:
The kinetic particle theory explains the properties of the different states of matter. The particles in solids, liquids and gases have different amounts of energy. They are arranged differently and move in different ways.
Explanation:
Hope it helps you
One can tell by looking at the titration curve of an acid and base whether the acid used is a strong acid or a weak acid. For a titration of a strong acid and a strong base, the pH at the equivalence point will be neutral, that is, pH 7. If the titration involves a weak acid and a strong base, the pH at the equivalence point will not be neutral, the solution will be basic at the equivalence point.
Answer:
The sample of lithium occupies the largest volume.
Explanation:
Given the densities for the four elements, we have the expression 
that shows the relationship between mass and Volume to express the density of an element.
For each element we have:
The problem says that all the samples have the same mass, so:
it means that m is a constant
Now, solving for the Volume in each element and with m as a constant, we have:
If we assume m = 1g, we find that:
So we can see that the sample of lithium occupies the largest volume with 1.88mL
Note that m only can take positive values, so if you change the value of m, always will be the lithium which occupies the largest volume.
